I decided to create this blog after a sudden onset of a serious medical condition. Scroll down to the bottom to start at the beginning of this journey. The events that have occurred over the past three weeks are very interesting. I have many people who want to be updated, and thought this might be an easy way to keep people in the loop! The initial postings are long because they basically summarize the initial two weeks of my illness.

Well, we are headed back to the surgeon on the 16th. I have been feeling ill since January and have had lots of tests done...all of which have been normal for the most part. However a CT of the Abd showed that one of the two masses I did not have to have removed last year, has grown and is pushing into my liver and could be what has been causing my symptoms. These are not the same types of tumors as the one I had last year, but we are seeing the same surgeon because he is familiar with them and we trust his opinions. I also have a gallstone which may be the culprit as well. So once again we wait.

About Me

I grew up in Florida and met my husband during high school, although we only dated a few months back then. We started dating again his last semester of college. We both attended the Univ. of Florida. We have been married for almost 18 years and have three beautiful children, ages 14, 12, and 8. We also have a cat and two soft coated Wheaten Terriers.
We now live in New Hampshire and enjoy the seasons and all the beauty of New Enlgland. Camping has become our favorite past time and we especially love heading north to Bar Harbor.
I graduated from Nursing School at UF in 1992 and have mostly done cardiac care nursing. I tried my hand at some home health when I was pregnant with my youngest and have also done some skilled nursing. My true love is cardiac nursing!
